Many thanks to everyone who supports the Boca Grande F.D.

The Boca Grande Fire Department would like to thank everyone that helped with our 75th Anniversary Open House. The out pouring of well wishes and response from the Community has been overwhelming. The donations of food, materials and technical assistance for the event are much appreciated. We also want to say thanks to everyone who stopped by to spend some time with us, share memories and a few stories. Special thanks go out to the following:
